<a href="https://renoquotes.com/en/blog/2020-monthly-home-decor-and-renovation-articles" target="_blank">In our 2020 yearly recap</a>, I shared articles about the predictions of designers for the coming year based on what they observed the year prior. Now, a month into 2021, those predictions have turned into concrete observations with Archdaily compiling a list of the ins, the outs, and any other trends that are here to stay!

<a href="https://www.archdaily.com/955914/construction-and-design-trends-of-2020-the-recurring-the-popular-the-relevant-and-the-substantial?ad_medium=widget&amp;ad_name=articles-article-show" target="_blank">Read more on this article here</a> and, if you want more, <a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/interior-design-trends-to-know-in-2021" target="_blank">here is a bonus read on the same subject by Vogue.</a>

2. The famous pink seesaw installation on Trump’s Mexico-US border wall named best design of the year  

Imagined and designed by architecture studio Rael San Fratello, these bright pink seesaws, named the Teeter-Totter Wall, were installed so they could bring kids from each side of the border together in a playful manner.&nbsp;

Despite being up for a mere 40 minutes in July of 2019, its message was impactful, wanting to send a message of unity amidst a heavily politicized and divisive wall, which resulted in the project being named design of the year 2020.

3. Meet this Copenhagen designer who made his apartment trend-proof

What does it mean, you ask? Well, times change and trends tend to fade off into the past, making way to new ones. Often people stick to one specific style for their home decor, but what happens when you get tired?&nbsp;

This is why interior designer and consultant Susanne Rutzou took the ageing Scandinavian style of her apartment building and mixed in different decor styles, making it almost impossible to pinpoint exactly which influence she used as her primary inspiration.

4. This handy DIY couple built this farm-inspired retreat in the Canadian Countryside

Tucked away in Ontario’s countryside is Kristine Remedios and John Silva’s now renovated 19th-century farmhouse. Standing next to the house was an equally old barn, both wasting away on six-acre farmland.

5. Exploring the weird phenomenon of buying mirrors during a global pandemic

Your appearance was probably the least of your concerns in the past year if you, just like me, spent it working from home. This is probably what we would all tell each other as we sit at our desks in pyjamas, but home decor companies tell us a different story.&nbsp;&nbsp;

<a href="https://www.vogue.com/article/everyone-is-buying-mirrors-right-now-but-why" target="_blank">Here is why CB2 reported over 4 million inquiries on mirrors, making it their most-searched home product of 2020.</a>

7. Renowned landscape architect, Carol Johnson, passes at 91

Sad news for the world of landscape architecture early in 2021 with the death of an icon. Carol Johnson, known for large-scale projects in big American cities like Boston and Washington, was also a strong icon for women in her field, having opened the door for many generations to come.

In the danish suburb of Albertslund, not too far from Copenhagen, is a former prison site that recently got the attention of architectural firm Schmidt Hammer Lassen Architects and landscape architects BOGL.

The combined project proposal for the 160,000-square-meter district aims to reuse the star-shaped structure that once housed the state prison, bringing new life and nature to it by creating an attractive mixed-use district.
